Guild Wars 2

Hi all, hope you’re all enjoying GW2! Just a few questions…

Would a Trading Post website be out of the question, one where you can see prices on trading posts over every world? Or is there just one TP for all the worlds?

And lastly, is there a limit to the amount of times you can transfer worlds? I know you have to wait a day in between transfers, but other than that?

Thank you.

The TP is global for all servers (part of the reason for the issues it had/has).

There is no limit on transfers for now (once every 24h), as this is only a stop gap solution until Anet sorts out the guesting system. After that transfers will only be possible for a gem fee and cross server play will be managed with guesting.

I believe the TP is global, so a “website” or something could be pretty cool to implement.

There is no limit on transfering worlds….for now…but that may change.

Oh, I see. I was hoping every world would have its own TP, and you could use the website as a way to find a world with cheaper materials. Sell for profit, etc. I think that would be kind of sweet, kind of like eve trading. I hope they don’t put a cap on transfers, though.

There is only one TP and it is global.

World Transfers are now limited to one every 24hrs. This was changed a couple days ago. The one every 24hrs is still free though

There is only one TP, to prevent help all servers keep a stable economy. With TP’s limited to only one server it would be easier to manipulate with the economy and the local server economy would be more prone to issues of a “natural” cause.

With one cross server TP the issues on one server can be absorbed by other servers and so a more stable economy can be kept.
